2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV 4WT in Poughkeepsie, NY
Winter range, charging cost and how far it goes, worked out for Poughkeepsie's weather, grid and prices.
In a typical Poughkeepsie January (27°F), a Silverado EV 4WT gets an estimated 354 miles on a charge, 21% less than its 450-mile rating, and about 350 miles in the coldest week of the year (around January 21, when it averages 27°F). By April it's back to about 448. Power is pricey in New York (29.9¢/kWh), so charging at home costs about $197 a month for 38 miles a day, still less than the $293 a gas Silverado costs on New York's gas. And Poughkeepsie's grid (NPCC Upstate NY), 68% cleaner than the US average, makes it 88% less CO₂ than gas.
Partly estimated. 3 of 5 temperature bands are from 167 real drives of this model; the rest come from 1,548 real drives in EVs at each temperature (and Recurrent's winter study below freezing), applied to its 450-mile rating. Each band switches to its own drives once it has 20 from 3 drivers.

Questions Poughkeepsie drivers ask
How far can a Silverado EV 4WT go in a Poughkeepsie winter?
About 354 miles on a typical January day (27°F) and about 350 in the coldest week of the year (around January 21, 27°F on average), estimated from real EV drives at those temperatures. That's 21–22% below its 450-mile rating, mostly from heating the cabin and the battery. Poughkeepsie averages 72 days a year below freezing.
How much does it cost to charge a Silverado EV 4WT in Poughkeepsie?
About $197 a month at home for 38 miles a day, at New York's average home electricity rate of 29.9¢/kWh: about 17.0¢ a mile. A gas Silverado on New York's average gas ($4.31 a gallon) costs about $293 a month for the same driving.
Can I charge a Silverado EV 4WT on a regular 120 V outlet in Poughkeepsie?
Not at 38 miles a day: a 120 V outlet adds only about 29 miles in 12 hours on an average day (23 in the coldest week). Plan on 240 V, which fills it from 10% in about 11 hours.
Is it greener to drive electric on Poughkeepsie's grid?
Yes, more than most places. Poughkeepsie's grid (NPCC Upstate NY) is 68% cleaner than the US average, so a Silverado EV 4WT charged on it makes 88% less CO₂ than a gas Silverado.
